improper installation, adjustment, service,
or maintenance can cause property damage,
personal injury or loss of life.
nOTiCE
Due to the low water content of the boiler, mis-
sizing of the boiler with regard to the heating
system load will result in excessive boiler
cycling and accelerated component failure. U.S.
Boiler Company DOES nOT warrant failures
caused by mis-sized boiler applications. DO
nOT oversize the boiler to the system. Multiple
boiler installations greatly reduce the likelihood
of boiler oversizing.
Warning
asphyxiation Hazard.

clearance may be reduced to the combustible material
clearance providing:
1. Access to boiler front is provided through a door or
removable front access panel.
2. Access is provided to the condensate trap located

boiler operation and service (circulator replacement,
condensate trap, control replacement, etc.).
E. Provide combustion and ventilation air
in
accordance with applicable provisions of local building
codes, or: USA -
National Fuel Gas Code
, ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54, Air for Combustion and Ventilation;
